STM Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Another classic from King Dawson has made me decide to have a poll. Dawson laughed off claims by myself that Taylor, when he hits his peak, will be a better defender than the current Ledley King. Am i the only one with this opinion?

Mowen Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 King. I'd be jizzing it if Taylor does get better, as I can't see him being as injury prone as Ledders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest teepee Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 these are the sort of threads that leads to unnecessary criticism of taylor ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 How there is nothing wrong with the thread. I want to know how good people think Taylor will be when he is at his peak. Whats wrong with that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Can't we have a poll called "Who is the best centre back in the Premier whose surname starts with Tay.."? For me it will be Taylor all the way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Spectrum Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Steven Taylor 2012 vs Ledley King 2007? Well...if both of Taylor's legs are still attached he'll win by default. But future Taylor vs King when he was fit...Ledley King. Not even close. Always thought he was a tremendous player, his injury problems have probably put this to bed but Ive felt for a long time that he should have been ahead of John Terry in the England team (I base that opinion on performances for England rather than Club form).

Dokko Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 King is an impressive defender, physically spot on for his position. But King wasn't as good as Taylor at Taylor's age, and with King's constant injuries, i know which one i'd want right now, and the one i'd want in the future. Taylor.

Nate Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 King is easily one of the best centre-halves in the country, I'll be pleasantly surprised if Taylor ever reaches those heights. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kingdawson Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 So in essence, Taylor wins by default because of King injuries?. An amazing stat i have mentioned on here before and will continue to do so is that King has only been booked 5 times in nine years of premiership football and has never been red carded. From 98-2003 he was never ever booked. Oh and rodaminho, i new thread wasent really needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quailman Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Right now I'd say Taylor and lets hope he matures with age and stops making rash mistakes when not necessary - through gaining experience obviously Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
manorpark Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Right now I'd say Taylor and lets hope he matures with age and stops making rash mistakes when not necessary - through gaining experience obviously He should mature, hopefully, in less than 5 years. About three years I think, with concentrated (regular, but not every game) first team experience, over that time. Hopefully learning from the various (many!) top-class defenders that Sam and Ashley will bring in (hasn't started yet, but will start doing so soon . . . ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked rodaminho if he "was serious" and he took it upon himself to start this thread rather then just respond to my question and leave it at that.
